5 Reasons to Get Excited for Fall

One of the best seasons of the year is just around the corner: Fall! There is something about this season that makes me so happy from the perfect weather, the leaves on the trees turning different colors, and the holidays that come with it. I am definitely obsessed with this season, and I know a lot of others are too. That being said, here are some reasons to remind you all why you need to get excited for Fall.

1. The Weather

I don't think any wather throughout the year is as perfect as Fall weather. It's such a happy medium of warm and cool that is never too overbearing. I love how in the morning you can wear comfy sweats or a flannel for class, but then when it warms up in the afternoon you can change into shorts and a tee. There's nothing like walking outside on a nice, Fall morning for the first time and breathing in that fresh air. It's the last taste of warmth until Winter comes and ruins everything, so soak it all in.

2. LEAVES

Nothing says Fall like watching the leaves turn gorgeous shades of red, orange, and yellow. Especially in Johnstown on the UPJ campus, the trees make everything so much more scenic. Before coming here, I had never seen such a huge amount of trees with turning leaves in one area. Once Fall rolls around, you will probably see me taking a picture of the trees almost every day just because I'm so obsessed. It makes me happier on my way to class and shows that one of my favorite seasons is here.

3. Fall Scents

I think one of my all time favorite thing about Fall are all the different smells associated with it. Whether it's pumpkin, apple, or spices, places like Yankee Candle and Bath & Body Works always got my back. I get so excited when they release new (and previously existing) scents for the season, and it's dangerous for me to go in these stores because I'll just want everything. The candles are my personal favorite because I love when the smell fills up the whole room, and it instantly makes me happier.

4. Fall Fashion

Fall is definitely one of my favorite times for fashion because I love sweaters, flannels, big cardigans, and boots. There are so many things you can do with just these few items because they are all so versatile. I love layering because like I said earlier, it can be cooler in the mornings, so if you wear a tee under your flannel you can take it off later. It will look super cute around your waist too. I also love how comfy these clothes are because I absolutely hate wearing uncomfortable clothes to class, so with Fall clothes you can be cute and comfy.

5. Halloween

Of course I saved the best for last. Halloween is such a fun holiday because you get to dress up however you want and no one will judge you. The crazier the costume, the better! I love thinking of what I want to be every year and seeing other people's costumes. Not to mention the excitement building up for Halloween because of the decorations and all the movies. No matter how many times you've watched the "Halloweentown" movies, they never get old.

I hope after reading this that you are just as pumped as I am for this Fall season.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies.
